Who Prosecutor is

The Prosecutor systematically rates lower than everyone else: where the crowd gives an eight, he gives a six or seven. He does hand out nines — just noticeably less often than the rest. Not a hater: a hater lowballs whatever is fashionable, while the Prosecutor is equally strict with everything — hits, classics, crowd favourites.

The strictness is relative. The algorithm looks at two things: a mean score lower than that of viewers with a similarly sized list, and a high share of ratings below each title's site average. So an average around seven and a few tens in the list don't contradict the class — what matters is how far below others he sits on the same titles.

What separates him from the Slopdrainer is motive: the Slopdrainer deliberately watches the bottom of the barrel and honestly gives it ones, while the Prosecutor watches what everyone watches — he just judges harder. Useful to have as a friend: if he gives something a nine, you can watch it blind. The bar isn't a pose for him; it's the conviction that the industry can do better.
